Phone and E-Mail Notification System

The RRPS Notification System
is used for school-wide and district-wide emergency calls, such as
school lock downs, and weather related delays, as well as information of
general interest. Messages may be sent by phone, by e-mail, by text,
or a combination of methods. If there is an emergency situation
specifically with your child, school staff will contact you directly via
the emergency numbers you provided when your registered.

Not Receiving Calls:

All contact information is based
upon parents/guardians enter in the online registration system at the
time they register their children. Very important: If
your phone number or e-mail address changes, please promptly contact
the registrar's office(s) at the school(s) your children attend so your
records can be updated. This will allow information to
reach you more promptly in case of emergency. If you have children in
more than one school, please be sure to make the change at all of the
schools.

Receiving Calls In Error:

If you are receiving calls and do not have children in our school system, please listen carefully to the message and make a note of the following information:

a. Student Name

b. School Name

c. Reason for the call

d. Date of call

Then, please contact the school
that made the emergency call and let them know you were called in error
(see table below). Please give them the phone number that was called in
error and the above information. Keep in mind the information may not
be fixed immediately, we may need to contact the parent/guardian on
record with that phone number to verify their contact information in
order to make the correction in the system.

If you have received a call and you're not the parent of (or the emergency contact for) an RRPS student, you may also call 896-0667, press "8," and leave a message.

Middle Schools "Safe Arrival" Calls:

DAILY ATTENDANCE CALLS:
All RRPS middle schools will be making AUTOMATED "Safe Arrival
Calls". These calls are to inform you when your middle school child is
not at school and is marked as unexcused.

Calls will be made within 2
hours after the start of school. Please make sure to answer these calls
if at all possible. Manual calls will be made if the calling system was
unsuccessful making contact (Only a call ANSWERED will be considered
successful, not calls received by an answering machine). As with
attendance calls in the past, to avoid receiving one or more attendance
calls when you are aware your child will be absent, please continue to
notify the school at least one hour prior to the start of school.

If you receive a call: Please call the school Attendance Office IMMEDIATELY to let them know the reason for your child's absence or if your child should be in school.
